Spanish

El viento sopla frío.
Agreguemos un leño a la fogata,
Y ahí con los brazos color púrpura,
en la llama subirá como sacrificio.
El fuego murmura,
Una canción entona,
Y gira y gira el finjan.

El fuego murmura a la brasa.
Nuestros rostros rojos se ponen ante el fuego
Y si nos traen un refuerzo
De las ramas del jardín,
Cada leño y cada tabla
Cantará suavemente
Y gira y gira el finjan...

Singable Italian

Il vento è già freddo, perciò
aggiungi un legnetto al falò,
il fuoco lo divorerà,
per noi si sacrificherà.
Scoppietta la scheggia,
il canto echeggia
e gira e rigira il caffè.
La-la-la...
e gira e rigira il caffè.

Il fuoco alla scheggia fa: “Sai,
sei rossa, sei brace oramai,
ma quando altra legna, però,
viene a rinforzare il falò,
allora d’incanto
s’innalza un bel canto
e gira e rigira il caffè.

La-la-la...

Così si prepara il caffè,
con questa ricetta da re:
con zucchero in quantità,
poi d’acqua riempi a metà.
Due volte a bollire,
poi d’acqua riempire
e gira e rigira il caffè.

La-la-la...

Poi quando già pronto sarà,
(bollire tre volte si fa),
qualcuno dirà certo che
è ottimo questo caffè!
L’aroma... che odore!
Che gusto il sapore!
E gira e rigira il caffè...

La-la-la...

English - singable

"A cooling wind's blowing upon
The ring where we pass the finjan
We'll throw tiny sticks on the pyre
We welcome the warmth of the fire
We'll sing until dawn while the fire flickers on
And once more we will pass the finjan! La, la, la......

English - singable

Softly the evening wind blows (clap, clap)
Golden our campfire glows (clap, clap)
And although the evening's far gone (clap, clap)
Its embers still burn on and on (clap, clap)
The embers keep sending a song neverending
Around and around the finjan (clap, clap)
La, lalala, lalala, lalala...

English - word by word

VERSE ONE
Ha-ruach - The wind
noshevet- blows
k'rirah - cool
Nosifa - We will add more
kisam - splinter, kindling, small piece of wood like a small branch etc ...
lam'durah - la is to; medura is bon fire or fire built in the open for celebration - vs. Aish = fire,
Lahavot = flames
V'chach - and thus, and so bizro-ot - with arms of argaman - here it refers to the color created by the fire. Argaman is the biblical word
used for very dark red or purple. I think it is a very poetic way of comparing the flames to dark red arms, in which the twigs and branches burn up like sacrifice.
Ba-eish - in the fire
ya-aleh - it will rise
K'korban - like a sacrifice
Ha-eish - the fire

Note: The meaning of the word "B'dal" is small, like "B'dal Cigaria" (cigarette) which is
what is left of the cigarette after one smoked most of it. or "B'dal Ozen" which is the tip
of the ear. The word B'dal is not a very common word in everyday Hebrew and here
it's used in a poetic way to describe a small branch.

English - singable

The cool wind is dancing tonight
in the arms of the flickering firelight
Soon the forest will echo with sound
from this circle of song we have found
Each new branch on the fire
sends the flames rising higher
and the finjan goes round and around.

The flames whisper soft as they burn
The branches reply in return
Our voices arising as one
we will sing til the first rays of sun
Every branch, every tree
joins in sweet harmony
as around and round goes the finjan.
